Genesis 33:3 in Context — Genesis 33

1 E levantando Jacó seus olhos, olhou, e eis que vinha Esaú, e os quatrocentos homens com ele: então repartiu ele os filhos entre Lia e Raquel e as duas servas.

2 E pôs as servas e seus filhos adiante; logo a Lia e a seus filhos; e a Raquel e a José os últimos.

3 E ele passou diante deles, e inclinou-se à terra sete vezes, até que chegou a seu irmão.

4 E Esaú correu a seu encontro, e abraçou-lhe, e lançou-se sobre seu pescoço, e o beijou; e choraram.

5 E levantou seus olhos, e viu as mulheres e os filhos, e disse: Quem são estes que estão contigo? E ele respondeu: São os filhos que Deus deu a teu servo.
